q question about smithing and barrels

[stonedrydar]

does smithing effect the quality of building meatgrinder, cauldron etc..?
does the q of barrels have any effect on whats inside or in the process of wine/vinegar making?
thanks

all built items are simply an average of the q of the parts, so no skills effect the q, only the material.
the quality of barrel is averaged with the quality of wort when it ferments to effect the beer q. same thing when doing grape juice to wine and wine to vinegar. so if you put q10 grape juice in a q100 barrel you'd get q55 wine, and then you'd get q77 vinegar.
